    Keep the efforts up everybody! I'm seriously impressed with you guys who are filling these hundreds and thousands of letters.

    It is the only thing that might keep this bill from being passed.

    Kara, we were inspired by you and what you've been doing at Zoo Creatures! It was a very rewarding experience, even when we were all moaning over hand cramps and looking at the stacks still left to do! LOL

    Thank you - it was the LEAST we could do, since we were going to be at the show anyway! One of the best weekends we've had as a group!

    Re: No HR 669 at the Dixie Reptile Show

    Thanks for the pictures, Christie!

    Here's a few of the final sort. I believe our final tally was 988 letters, give or take.

    Thank you to ALL you guys who stepped in and gave your time (and risked carple-tunnel syndrom!) to help us get this done! You all ROCK! I can't wait to hear what the final tally of this letter campaign is...from people all over the country!

    Re: No HR 669 at the Dixie Reptile Show

    Guys it looked like you did a great job! I'm proud to say I'm a member here and ever more ashamed I couldn't make it to help out...Even if Tim and Sean descided to bust my chops over the safty of the phone... LOL

    Again just one more reason BP.net is head and sholders above the rest.
